Registration Procedures
Carefully review the registration procedures for youth basketball leagues. To begin the registration process, payment and a signed waiver must be submitted with your registration form.
All 7th - 8th grade players must attend one of two evaluation days on Sunday, December 7 or 14 from 2:00 - 5:00 p.m. Evaluations are held at the Recreation Center, 4500 Belmont Road. Teams are formed based on the school the participant attends and on evaluation results. Only reciprocal carpool request will be honored.
Mail-in, drop-off and online registration begins the week of October 14. Each season new teams are formed and grouped as specified below. Returning players are not guaranteed the same team from season to season. To be eligible for the Early Registration Fee, registration forms must be received by November 4. After this date, the regular registration fee will be charged. The deadline for all registrations is December 9.
Min/Max: 4/12 Information for all Basketball Divisions
Each player must wear the league uniform, which consists of a green and yellow shirt (exception: 7th and 8th grade players). School sites for practices are to be determined by the Park District. Because not every District 58 school is available for practices, some teams may practice at a neighboring school rather than the school attended by team members. Please note: A weekly practice will be scheduled for each team but is not always guaranteed and is dependent on facility availability.
Uniforms can be purchased at the Park District for $16.
Team Assignment Note Teams are created according to the following criteria when registered by December 9:
1. School attended 2. Grade 3. Balance of gender 4. Roster size 5. Mutual carpool request
In general, our goal is to keep players from the same school on the same team. Should enrollment numbers and roster maximums not accommodate this practice, schools may be combined to form teams. Team maximums are based on enrollment numbers at the time of the registration deadline.
